costume jewelry
Imitation sparkly accessories
Costume jewelry is decorative pieces made from inexpensive materials—base metals, glass, plastic, or synthetic stones—rather than precious metals and gems.
The term distinguishes fashion accessories from fine jewelry: She wore costume jewelry to the party, saving her diamonds for the gala.
Also called fashion jewelry.
